Obduro Fatum : Info, Discussion, and Voting

I've never done a true CYOA before, so I decided to try my hand at it.

I figured this is the perfect thing for me to do with you guys, since this sort of roleplay is easy to manage, even with limited time.

You'll be using this thread to vote for your options. Most CYOAs allow you to post on the main thread, but I never liked how clunky it made things seem, what with the actual story being surrounded on all sides with people posting random letters.

I trust you folks don't need a long-winded explanation for this one? I'll just list a few key ideas.

> There is a good/evil system, which matters a great deal. Being evil doesn't necessarily mean that you'll have a rougher time than a good character. In fact, it could mean quite the opposite.

> The first option to receive three votes will automatically be chosen. You are allowed to change your vote if you wish. If three or less people vote over the course of a six-hour period, The option with the most votes will be chosen.

> Dying is not the end, though it should be avoided at all costs.


We'll get this party started as soon as the first post is made.

Awesome!

I'm guessing this is for comments and discussion as well?

Yesh. :3

Since a three-person vote is required to advance the plot, you guys might want to justify your choices in order to attract other voters to your cause.

RULE UPDATE - If three or less people vote over the course of a six-hour period, The option with the most votes will be chosen.

A. We should not attract attention to ourselves. Playing a song will make people thing our character is a homosexual, and he is likely to be flogged mercilessly because of this.

A!

What makes you assume our lovable hero is a he? D:

Are you sexist, Pengy? ):<

D= No!
BUT. He's drinking. And he seems merry, like a bard.
A MALE bard.

An androgynous bard, more like!

A. No one likes a harp player. And we all know the dance of Dorcas Dane is the song of berserk in a little known RPG in which playing it makes everyone around the player fall under an uncontrollable rage, attacking their enemies with whatever they have at hand.

In this case the enemy would be you. Just put the dang harp away.

A, it is.

Z's B vote = moved here.

Hmm...I think B. Our character needs to have a backbone but at the same time just punching someone in the face without warning is a bit much.

B it is. More people need to vote. ):<

Hmm...B.

TRIGG!!
